Done by setting `autopilot.min_quorum = 3`.
Techncially, this would have been required to keep the test correct since
Consul's "autopilot" "Dead Server Cleanup" was enabled by default (I believe
that was in Consul 0.8). Practically, the issue only occurred with our NixOS
test with releases >= `1.7.0-beta2` (see #90613). The setting itself is
available since Consul 1.6.2.
However, this setting was not documented clearly enough for anybody to notice,
and only the upstream issue https://github.com/hashicorp/consul/issues/8118
I filed brought that to light.
As explained there, the test could also have been made pass by applying the
more correct rolling reboot procedure
-m.wait_until_succeeds("[ $(consul members | grep -o alive | wc -l) == 5 ]")
+m.wait_until_succeeds(
+ "[ $(consul operator raft list-peers | grep true | wc -l) == 3 ]"
+)
but we also intend to test that Consul can regain consensus even if
the quorum gets temporarily broken.
This makes it possible to only start IPFS when needed. So a user’s
IPFS daemon only starts when they actually use it.
A few important warnings though:
- This probably shouldn’t be mixed with services.ipfs.autoMount
since you want /ipfs and /ipns aren’t activated like this
- ipfs.socket assumes that you are using ports 5001 and 8080 for the
API and gateway respectively. We could do some parsing to figure
out what is in apiAddress and gatewayAddress, but that’s kind of
difficult given the nonstandard address format.
- Apparently? this doesn’t work with the --api commands used in the tests.
Of course you can always start automatically with startWhenNeeded =
false, or just running ‘systemctl start ipfs.service’.
Tested with the following test (modified from tests/ipfs.nix):
import ./make-test-python.nix ({ pkgs, ...} : {
name = "ipfs";
nodes.machine = { ... }: {
services.ipfs = {
enable = true;
startWhenNeeded = true;
};
};
testScript = ''
start_all()
machine.wait_until_succeeds("ipfs id")
ipfs_hash = machine.succeed("echo fnord | ipfs add | awk '{ print $2 }'")
machine.succeed(f"ipfs cat /ipfs/{ipfs_hash.strip()} | grep fnord")
'';
})

After making `ffmpeg` point to the latest `ffmpeg_4`, all packages that
used `ffmpeg` without requiring a specific version now use ffmpeg_3
explicitly so they shouldn't change.
